Sprint by Jake Knapp (568)

Sprint by Jake Knapp is a groundbreaking guide that teaches readers how to solve big challenges, test ideas rapidly, and accelerate innovation using a proven five-day process. Developed at Google Ventures and refined through hundreds of real-world workshops, the Sprint framework has become one of the most influential methods for teams seeking clarity, direction, and speed in decision-making. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, manager, designer, or part of a creative team, this book provides a practical roadmap for reducing risk and building solutions that truly work.

At its core, Sprint offers a structured, step-by-step process that helps teams move from problem to tested prototype in just one week. Jake Knapp, along with co-authors John Zeratsky and Braden Kowitz, share insights gained from working with successful startups and global companies. Their approach emphasizes focus, efficiency, and collaboration—three elements that often get lost in traditional project timelines that stretch for months. By compressing innovation into five meaningful days, the Sprint process helps teams avoid endless debates, unclear planning, and wasted resources.
